Huge thank you to Robson Laidler who provided everything we needed to provide a beautiful Christmas dinner yesterday to our group members and for them all to enjoy the musical talents of Jason King. So much fun and a great way to end our pre Christmas activities for 2018!

What an incredible day! Massive thanks to everyone who made it possible, especially the staff of Newcastle Building Society who were simply brilliant! Enjoy these photos and feel free to tag yourself. More to follow 🙂

These fabulous photos of our Tea Dances were taken earlier this year by a photographer from the Community Foundation. We love them!

The Memory Bus is off to Gosforth Academy today. Every year we are invited to bring a group to the school for an afternoon of music and entertainment, followed by a three course Christmas dinner - all prepared for by the pupils. It's a lovely festive afternoon and it's very special to feel part of the community for all our group members. Photos to follow.

What an epic organisation



And such super kind, caring staff

What an amazing group. It's an absolute pleasure to be involved with such wonderful volunteers & members! Xx

The planning and work that goes into each Tea Dance, never mind the Silverline Memories Variety Show is incredible. All for a good cause. Local people serving the local community, and providing a drop in twice a week, with a view to expand, and start a coffee morning in Gateshead near Springwell Community allotment. Make contact for information on what we do.

The Silverline Memories team are an amazing group of volunteers who are supportive, caring and compassionate. They light up the lives of those with dementia, and raise the spirits of those caring for loved ones. Our lives are enriched to be part of their 'family'. God Bless you all.

Such a wonderful group, they are supportive, caring and so welcoming. Sandra and her group of volunteers create a lovely atmosphere and there's always a nice cup of tea on offer.

Spent today at the garden and cafe and totally humbled seeing what Silverline means to so many people! �

Silverline memories are a tremendous charity who are doing all they can to sprinkle a little sunshine into people's lives the best way they can...their new Dementia Cafe is very exciting and a fabulous place to visit...an oasis in the desert.

Sandra and her team have created something very special at Silverline Memories. I spent a great afternoon providing holistic pamper treatments to the lovely people at the Dementia Cafe. Everyone who comes through the door is made to feel very welcome, and it was lovely to see everyone in this friendly and supportive group relax and enjoy themselves. I can't wait to go back!

My mum and I visited the dementia cafe in St Aidens for the first time last week, we were made to feel most welcome by both the organisers and other visitors. Thank you and see you after the bank holiday Jan x
